Weekend stuff
Last night, the Pilot and my brother went up to Phoenix for the Celtics game. So after my girls’ night dessert party, I had a glass of Malbec and decided to spend the rest of the evening being gloriously lazy. I thought I’d watch some TV and actually pay attention instead of catching little snippets…

2/22: Friday Faves
-This week’s surprise snow. Snow-covered cacti: not something you see very often. -Caroline’s naptime acrobatics taken to an entirely different level. (I took that picture before she fell then proceeded to act like nothing happened.) -Mangoes! They’re not in our usual fruit rotation, but it’s always fun to switch it up and Liv loves them.…

Snow em gee

In typical Tucson kids’ fashion, we all ran outside in between our classes to take pictures of each other with snow in the background. Rookies, I tell ya. Snow is an extreme rarity here! My absolute favorite…

Not easy being green
I was better off staying far away from the computer last night. It was the kind of day where everything I touched seemed to spontaneously combust: I had a Home Alone moment with the grocery bags (of course, one happened to contain the eggs) I knocked Liv’s full plate of food off the table (thank…

The mom identity crisis
When I first had Liv, I used to get a little bummed out when I saw moms that looked so “put together.” While reading mommy blogs, I’d see photos of these moms, perfectly coiffed, wearing heels and red lipstick, and here I was in yesterday’s pajamas, with sticky hair and a unibrow. I feared quite…

Sneaks for me, sneaks for youuuuu
The stairs and I are not friends today. Spinning gets me EVERY time! So good. Since the Pilot was home yesterday, I was able to take a daytime class, so I went into work for 10 minutes of weights and 45-minute spin. My friend Katie taught, and her playlist was amazing. I especially love the…

2/17: Pics from the day
Not pictured: -Last night’s date night. We went out for dinner and cocktails, sat in a loud bar area with live music, and it was awesome. We thought about seeing a movie, but ended up just hanging out and demolishing some sushi rolls. For any Tucson friends, the firecracker roll at Sakura is to diiieeeee…
